For a new report assessing the environmental and socioeconomic conditions in 286 of the world's transboundary river basins, SEDAC data were used in the calculation of several indicators: economic dependence on water resources, societal wellbeing levels, and the risk of climate-related hazards.
In some situations a choice may be indicated, whereas in others the use of several complementary indicators will allow for a more comprehensive measurement of material circumstances, taking into account both income and wealth.
The present study was strengthened by its population-based design, large sample size, and the use of several socioeconomic indicators to conceptualize the multiple dimensions of SES [ 46, 51].
This analysis was based on the use of several warm-up indicators and statistical tests.
In their paper Czaika and De Haas (2014) test the common belief that the volume, diversity and scope of migration have globalised by conceptualising globalisation using several indicators, of which intensity, diversity, and direction are pivotal.
We found no evidence that the risk of hypothyroidism varied with iodine intake, using several indicators: levels of urinary iodine (p = 0.89), presence of diffuse goiter (p = 0.56; data not shown), or large thyroid volume (≥ 15 mL) at ultrasound (p = 0.20; data not shown).
However, biodiversity could be measured by using several indicators of the Sustainability Indicator Set (SIS), as some of them measure driving forces considered as mainly responsible for the loss of biodiversity [61].
Medicare claims also were used to identify several indicators of poor performance status [ 43], a claims-based surrogate for Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status, including the use of oxygen and related respiratory therapy supplies, wheelchair and supplies, home health agency use, and skilled nursing facility use.
We demonstrated associations between residential proximity to traffic-related air pollution and current asthma using several indicators of nearby traffic.
